I can't see it happening.
I am still completely puzzled as to the continued push for battery making facilities on our doorstep. Batteries are messy and fraught with danger. Those living near the factory will be living on a knife edge worrying about accidents.

It was always the case. Government interference was never the way to go. The imbeciles in Westminster never learn the lessons of past mistakes!

Without massive incentives (read bribes) this isn't going to happen. Wised-up car makers are already dropping EV production.
